Bab 39: Chapter 39- the rest of the vacation

Neville's pov

Neville was pissed. Apparently, Harry thought he wasn't good enough for his father's wand. He bought him a gift card for a new wand and wrote in a letter how he didn't think he fit the wand- what a jerk! Luckily, Neville managed to hide the letter from his grandmother who already told him that he didn't deserve his father's wand and that they should buy a new one in the summer- he would prove everyone he is worthy of his father legacy! And as for Harry? They weren't friends anymore, he is worse then Malfoy!

Hermione's pov

Hermione was so happy! She got gifts for the first time from people that weren't her family.

She got chocolate frogs from Ron, colored ink from Marcus and a wand cleaner from Neville. She made sure to gift them a study calendar that would help them studying for tests, yet there was another person who got her a present for whom she didn't get anything, Harry Peverell.

He got her a gift card for 13 books and she didn't even got him anything. She felt horrible. Even more so, when she remembered that Neville didn't mention anything about any gift he prepared for Harry which meant he probably didn't send him one ether.

Hermione wasn't sure what to do except accepting his apology for his rude behavior when she get back to school and becoming friends with him again, after all, he isn't in Slytherin for a long time yet, maybe there is still a way to save his soul.

George Weasley's pov

They stayed in Hogwarts this year, all the Weasley brothers who are still in school, and Fred and him couldn't have asked for a better Christmas miracle.

Don't get him wrong, he loved his family, his house and the even though he wouldn't admit it, his mother. But if there was something Fred and George hated was a Weasley's Christmas.

It was full of screaming from their mothers about their latest prank, stories about how amazing Percy is in school and now with the addition of Ron's friendship with Marcus, nagging from their sister about joining her worship cult of the 'boy who lived to ask for help in scratching his own butt'. No, they preferred to be in Hogwarts with the amazing meals, the Christmas pranks and snow fights. Not to mention, their transfigurations training they were taught by Harry was going so good that they managed to do McGonagle's table to pig trick two years before it is taught, which meant that after all the students return, Fred and George were going to create untraceable pranks who cannot be blamed on them. Yes, this Christmas is great.

Harry's pov

It was the last day of the winter break and all students were disappointed. Most of them just didn't want the vacation to end and going back to studying didn't sound good to them, but there was at least one student whose reason was different. Harry's reason for not wanting the break to end was the unwilling to slow his studies again.

You see, while having no teacher in a subject like potion did slow him as Snape was an incredible potion master and helped him avoid mistakes and Flitwick answered most of the questions he couldn't find answers for in books, most subjects in this school were better for him to study independently and the school year only slowed his studies by a large margin. In fact while in vacation he managed to finish fifth year's charm's book, improved his magical control to the middle of second year's transfigurations, and read in the ROR all the seven DADA books from the year of 1900 as it was before Dumbledore taught defense and couldn't screw the curriculum andhis magical power grew by 2% more in this three weeks break then before the break.

He even managed to complete almost half of his chemistry master studies curriculum and was planing on using his summer break to complete his practical part and tests. Overall, Harry much preferred to continue his self studying style then return to the school year...
